MY NETFLIX MOVIE REVIEWS #101


After accomplishing the assignment of dismantling a human trafficking organization, the former military and drifter Jack Reacher goes to Washington to invite his liaison, Major Susan Turner, to have dinner with him. However, he meets her substitute, Colonel Sam Morgan, who explains that Major Turner has been arrested and accused of espionage. Jack seeks out her veteran lawyer, Colonel Bob Moorcroft, who explains that Major Turner has also been accused of the murders of two soldiers in Afghanistan. Further, he also tells Jack he is being sued, accused by a woman of being the father of her fifteen year-old daughter, Samantha. When Moorcroft is murdered, Jack is accused of being the killer and sent to a prison. He sees that Turner and he have been framed and also that Turner will be killed by two assassins. However, he rescues her and they flee. Soon, they realize that there is a conspiracy involving military people from the army and a government contractor that is a powerful arms dealer... Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Courtesy of Internet Movie Database)

So I don’t know how many people are up on these JACK  REACHER films, but I have now watched my second one JACK REACHER: Never go back. I’d have to say I’m still kind of impressed. These action laden films of the guy that just can’t be beat reminds me a bit of the JOHN WICK series, but in this case JACK REACHER is an ex Major out to help those in trouble. Being a fan of Tom Cruise for a while, but not everything he has done film wise I think these JACK REACHER film are a good look. The film is kind of a who done it cover up expo with some emotional play, which I thought gave the Jack Reacher character a bit more dimension. So for JACK REACHER I give it 3.75 stars out of 5.
